The Unused: Blue Glitter Gradient with 3D Leopard Heart!

Hello lovely readers!

I have tonight an unused mani - for those who aren't familiar with this 'series', I take polishes that I've never used and make a mani out of it. It just forces me to make use of the polishes I never touch :) I decided to use Gone Gonzo! from the OPI Muppet Collection and Beyond the Mistletoe from Colour Club's Beyond the Mistletoe Collection. I thought they would look great together and the holo glitter from BTM would add some great dimension to GG.

I did a glitter gradient with these and added an acrylic 3D heart and painted some blue leopard spots on them (I've always wanted to try them!!). To finish off, I lined the heart with silver bullion beads. They're so Japanese-like to me, but they would've been more so had I added rhinestones to the remaining fingers - I just wanted to keep this one simple. Without further ado, the pics :)






Sorry for the different lighting in the pics - all except the first were taken at night. Apart form that, what do you think of this mani? Let me know below :) I think I will be doing a product review in the next post, so till then, takecare!

**Btw, remember those black milk legging designs I did a while back? My cousin just informed me of them sharing my link on their FB page! :D

    1. Thanks Shayleen! Honestly, I'm not that good at doing 3D nail art, but I can take a stab at it when I've got some free time :)
